My sister honored me with asking me to be my neice’s godmother…. so of course I just HAD to make the baptismal gown. I searched and searched for THE pattern, but I couldn’t find anything that I truly, truly loved. I then decided to make my own gown, complete with pearl beading, satin ribbon roses and glass-beaded belt/sash.

A crochet heart… so sweet and simple. I love the way even a humble picot edge can make anything more “frilly”.

In preparation for Valentine’s Day, I decided to crochet a lovely little heart pocket, perfect for storing a special message for a special someone. The PDF link can be found below. Happy crocheting!

I have a confession to make. I dislike footwear. If I could I would walk around barefoot all day, just to enjoy the freedom of feeling the cool floors on my skin. That’s one of the reasons I love summer, when I can get away with walking outdoors in the grass with nothing between the soles of my feet and that fresh green grass….

But winter is not a very friendly season when it comes to being barefoot. So what’s my solution?

Cotton. I love the comfort of cotton. So I decided to make us some cotton slippers. I figured that the benefits are two-fold. One, the cotton is more comfortable than acrylic. Two, it will be less slippery than the acrylic too. However— cotton does stretch more than acrylic, and so to ensure them staying put, I made the trim using acrylic yarn.

I have included the pattern below and you’ll need some basic knowledge of crochet to complete the slippers ( PDF link below).
